Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 When I found out that this model was coming out I almost cried. If it wasn't for the 1969 Mustang I would never have become a car guy and would never have gotten into model car building. By chance, one Sunday while getting ready for church, I passed a show on SPEED TV called the American Muscle Car and the 1969 Mustang was the subject of the show. They made the car sound like the greatest thing ever built and I became hooked on cars from that day forward. I watched the show every week, absorbing as much knowledge as I could. The color is Blue Angels Yellow. I had two issues with an otherwise excellent kit. The hood did not fit right, and the stripes for the hood got messed up, so i have to order new ones. Haven't had a chance to put on the clear coat yet. SAM_0450 by Eric Lucas, on Flickr SAM_0451 by Eric Lucas, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slimguy Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Very nice model Eric. I have not bought this kit yet but I plan too in the near future. By the way, I feel your pain with respect to stripe decals on some of these cars. I have yet to master it. When they go on straight and true, I jump for joy. Then the next one goes on and I cry in pain as it wrinkles, folds, or lays at some funky angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The strips folded in on themselves as I was trying to put it on and I could not get it undone. Sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geno Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Cool build Eric, I dig Mustangs of any vintage other than the mid/late 70's turds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
